OptimizeRx Partners with The Trade Desk for Programmatic

OptimizeRx, a healthcare marketing technology company providing software subscriptions for drug-prescribing and record-keeping systems, is expanding into programmatic advertising. After an earlier partnership with healthcare-focused DSP DeepIntent, the company has now integrated with The Trade Desk. This move allows advertisers to target healthcare providers (HCPs) within electronic health records (EHRs) at the point of care. Targeting uses National Provider Identifiers (NPIs), ensuring precise, bot-free, fully viewable ad placements. OptimizeRx aims to maintain strict ad creative vetting to avoid misleading doctors. The partnership also opens opportunities for non-prescription brands, such as OTC products, to reach specific doctors based on geography and season. Over 99% of OptimizeRx's current ad business is tied to prescription drugs, but programmatic offers new revenue streams.
